Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best apples to use for this Apple Crisp recipe?
For the best texture and flavor in this Apple Crisp, choose firm, slightly tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. These varieties hold their shape well during the 45 minutes of baking time at 350°F (175°C). Avoid overly soft apples that might turn mushy.
Can I make this Apple Crisp topping gluten-free or vegan?
Yes, you can easily adapt this recipe! For a gluten-free version, substitute the 1/2 cup all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend. To make it vegan, replace any butter used in the topping with a solid vegan butter alternative.
How should I store leftover Apple Crisp with Oat Topping?
Store leftover Apple Crisp tightly covered at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For the best crisp topping texture, reheat individual servings in a toaster oven or a 350°F oven until warmed through.
